==History==
The school was founded in Beaver, Pennsylvania in 1853 as Beaver Female Seminary. By 1872, it had attained collegiate status, under the auspices of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and was named Beaver College. The school admitted men from 1872 to 1907, then again limited enrollment to women until 1972. In 1924 Beaver College moved east to Jenkintown, Pennsylvania and changed its religious affiliation to Presbyterian. In 1928, the school acquired the Harrison estate in Glenside, including Grey Towers Castle, the location of the current campus. The college operated both the Jenkintown and Glenside campuses until 1962, when it consolidated all activities onto the Glenside campus. Some significant changes came in 1972, when the college launched its first graduate programs and began admitting men in the same year. In July 2001, upon attaining university status, Beaver College officially changed its name to Arcadia University. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Arcadia University Student Handbook: History of Arcadia University" at Arcadia University website (retrieved April 6, 2015) )〕 The university is no longer affiliated with the Presbyterian Church.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.arcadia.edu/about/default.aspx?id=634 )〕
